Description
Group of (2) golden plover shorebird decoys believed to be from Nantucket, Massachusetts; the maker is unknown but they appear to be by the same carver. Both birds have the same paint pattern, which appears original with some early overpaint and touch-ups. Both birds show shot spray which has not been touched up. Both have two stick holes, the aft hole being much less in diameter. One bird has a bill replacement. Catalog note: This pair is typical of decoys that were shot over and not carved for the mantle. Larger 5-1/2''h, 2-1/2''w, 9-1/2''l. Provenance: Estate of Joseph ''Jay'' St. Mark, PhD, of Newtown, Connecticut, historian, appraiser, and collector of fine Americana.
